About this listen

Lorelei of the Red Mist is a thrilling science fiction novella co-written by Ray Bradbury and Leigh Brackett. The story follows the adventures of Hugh Starke, a notorious space outlaw, who finds himself in an unusual predicament after his death. His mind is transferred into a new, powerful body by a mysterious woman named Rann, who rules a deadly world covered in red mist. With his new form, Starke is thrown into a chaotic struggle for power, involving alien creatures, treachery, and strange forces.

Bradbury's vivid imagination, combined with Brackett's action-packed storytelling, makes the novella an engaging read. The story delves into themes of identity, transformation, and survival in a fantastical alien environment. Starke's internal battle between his old self and his new body adds complexity to the plot, making it more than just a typical space opera. Lorelei of the Red Mist is a testament to Bradbury's early work and collaborative efforts, blending poetic descriptions with high-paced adventure. It offers a fascinating look at a dangerous world where survival is the key, and where betrayal can come from even the most unexpected places.

PLEASE NOTE: when you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

The story is great, no complaints there, however the performance is pretty bad. I thought maybe I just needed to get used to this reader's diction and enunciation, but...I can't. It's not just that the reader over-enunciates every word, especially at the end of a sentence, it's also that he reads everything very flatly and with the same tone and intensity. I can't tell if what is being spoken is dialogue, narration, context, etc, or if there is a change in which character is speaking in a conversation. The story is good, but the reading is dull. I'll be requesting a refund.
